The reason God does not immediately strike down sinners is because he wants them to seek forgiveness and there is always forgiveness, the problem with homosexuality as a sin is that people instead of pleading for forgiveness take God's word the wrong way and think that he hates them which he does not, he loves them, so they begin to hate God and instead of finding him and his forgiveness, they throw parades to show how proud they are of themselves.

Hm, if he wants sinners to seek forgiveness,
why then did he kill all humans on earth (execpt a few ones) in the flood, did destroy Sodom & Gomorrha, order his israelites to commit genocides on multiple occasions or send out 2 she-bears to kill 42 kids whose only sin was, to make fun of the baldness of a prophet?
It seems to me as if they were treated unfai in this regards then, especially the kids who didn´t even get a chance to grow up and see that it is wrong to make fun of other people just because of their apprearance.

If I were to convert to fundamentalist Christianity it would mean I would have to give up a largely sinless life and become a strident hypocrite full of hatred and bigotry.
Thanks very much you honey-tongued serpent but I know the difference between right and wrong.
A least homosexuals can have a parade safe in the knowledge that they are not harming anybody else and can express solidarity with each other in a gay pride march. Contrast that with the militaristic protestant marches in Northern Ireland. Full of belligerence and antagonism. Stupid, violent young men led by cynical and bitter old men.
There is no god anyway and religions totally suck.
Love ya, Pule.
BudZer,
I assume you have given up your own particular abominations*
before you wrote your piece. If not, then you are an arch hypocrite!
*, Eating shellfish; wearing clothes of two different threads; cutting your hair; etc. (Read Leviticus. All these abominations are set out. Bet you fail on some at least! hehehehehe!)
Quoth the Raven, "The juiceless husks that dusty and dry doth mutter and flap their mouths to straggle forth their miserable skeins of prayer. Like shriveled carcasses festering under the nipping worm and gorging maggot that long ago lost their human way. Oh! Dear Lord! Help us! let us once more be men of bloody flesh let our cheeks flash scarlet in the happy light of day. Let the succulent scarlet lips of feisty, fecund women suck hungrily on our engorged gushing cocks. May we forever ..." (cont. page 94)

If God didn't know the sinners would reject his "forgiveness", he isn't omniscient. If he did know, he had no reason not to strike them down immediately.
So you proved nothing except the idea of an omniscient god is not compatible with logic or free will.
because fuckers like you, in no way, hate or abuse them, treat them like shit or feel the urge to spit on them for that very reason
God never struck down Oscar Wilde. He lived long enough to be one of the best writers in the English language, and is far more intelligent than anything in the babble. Either this ghey thing is blown all out of proportion by you fools, or there is no god to begin with.
"I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability."

On average, how long would you say that god waits before striking down? I mean, I have waited some 50 odd years and have not been struck down yet. Will it take much longer?

Even if that were true (which it isn't, but let's just suppose...) whose fucking fault is it??? If you people didn't keep banging on about homosexuality as if it's the worst thing in the entire history of the universe (when, in fact, the Bible hardly mentions it at all and condemns inhospitality and loaning money with interest more times than it appears to condemn homosexuality) maybe a few more people would listen to you instead of writing you off as the complete fucktards you appear to be.
The Escapist? What the... *goes check* Yeah, it's still a video game site. What the hell?
Can you please leave the fundieloonery to sites dedicated to fundieloonery? Same goes to everyone GameFAQs user who gets posted here too.
I mean, I've got nothing against fundieloonery. That's funny. I just don't want that in videogame commentary.
The reason God does not immediately strike down sinners is because
he doesn't exist. There, was that so hard?
If I want my dog to quit pissing on the rug, do I just wait for it to stop on its own until I get so pissed off I shoot it? No, I train the dog. If your god was real and "loving" we'd get zapped everytime we sinned. Maybe not struck down, but a good zap every time you had gay sex would get our attention. Pretty soon there'd be no more sin in the world.
If animal trainers know how to do this, you'd think an all knowing god would have figured it out.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
